Is Paul Newman sexier than Brad Pitt?

As part of Good Sex Week on femail.co.uk, we got pulses racing with our picture gallery of some of the world's sexiest men.

George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Jude Law were all part of our lip-smacking line-up, which some of you described as 'oozing in phwoarrr appeal'.

But there were others of you who were slightly disappointed that we'd neglected to include some of the more mature male icons.

'I think the hunks of yesteryear take some beating,' wrote Pam Hughes on our message board. 'Paul Newman, Elvis, Sidney Poitier... now they were sexy.'

'These are lads not men,' added Jan W. 'Whatever happened to the real hunks, the sort that would make your toes curl? I shall have to have a nostalgia session and dream about all those gorgeous men from the past.'

Well stop right there, Jan. Never one to ignore our readers, in response to your comments, femail.co.uk has put together a second gallery featuring some of our more established male actors and singers.

Get your fill of the purrfect Paul Newman looking mean and moody in our gorgeous picture. Or feast your eyes on sexy Steve McQueen - he'll definitely provide you with a great escape. Then there's Sean Connery, looking dark and brooding in our picture of him from his Bond days. And not to mention Gregory Peck, cutting a dash in a soldiers uniform.

And if that's not enough to wet your appetite, take a look at a lean and muscly Marlon Brando in a picture taken at the peak of his career. Then there's Cary Grant looking as though he was Born To Be Bad in a pensive shot from his early days. Not forgetting Richard Burton looking smouldering in a dress suit and tie.

But of course we can't do justice to these idols in just words alone. So take a break, sit back and transport yourself into seventh heaven with our gallery of the world's sexiest men (part two). Don't forget to tell us what you think on the message boards!
